The Australia Square project aimed at bringing a new openness into the congested heart of the city, with plaza areas open to the sky, an arcaded ground floor design and a circular 50-storey tower which allowed maximum light into surrounding streets. Australia Square was a landmark development in the 1960s. Its planning, design and construction were marked by creative innovation. Australia Square challenged the planning and architectural thinking of the time. The result was praised and indeed became a highly significant project in the wider context of development in Sydney. The site of Australia Square was the product of a protracted site consolidation carried through by G J Dusseldorp, building promoter and developer, Chairman of Lend Lease Corporation. From the early 1950s the concept of redeveloping parts of the city by consolidating small city lots to form a single larger site suitable for the erection of a skyscraper had been discussed. Dusseldorp’s amalgamation brought under one ownership an entire city block, involving over 30 different properties and more than 80 titles. This, the first of the whole block developments, resulted in the demolition of a number of buildings which, in the later 20th century, would be regarded as having heritage significance and would have compromised the scheme. Dusseldorp formed a company called City Centre Development Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Lend Lease, to finance the project. Sydney City Council gave approval for the scheme in July 1960. Lend Lease had put the proposal before the Council in May of that year and it took less than three months to have the complex proposal passed with little amendment. It had had the endorsement of the city building surveyor, John Rankin who was a member of the powerful Height of Building Advisory Committee. He said the time was ‘opportune to replan the block.’1 No public display of such radical changes to streets and massive building demolition was necessary at this time. The proposal was in fact very generous to Lend Lease. Lend Lease was to give land to the Council for the widening of Bond Street and to dedicate land as roadway on Hunter Street (provided the company could acquire all the properties on the northern side of Hunter Street between George Street and Pitt Street). It also allowed for the elimination of Deans Place, Little George Street and Little Hunter Street and the closing of the section of Hamilton Street 2 between Bond Street and Hunter Street. This land could then become part of the company’s large building site. The provisions of the County of Cumberland Scheme were suspended tallow planning to be undertaken for the whole block. However, the finalised development did not finally incorporate the properties on the northern side of Hunter Street between Pitt and George Streets. Harry Jensen, Sydney Lord Mayor presided over a “start-of-work’ ceremony in December 1962. Sydney City Council gave approval for the scheme in July 1960 and Harry Jensen, Sydney Lord Mayor presided over a “start-of-work” ceremony in December 1962. Architect Harry Seidler travelled to Rome to confer with Italian structural engineer, Pier Luigi Nervi. Nervi’s advice was sought particularly in relation to the concrete design of the circular tower. The 13-storey Plaza Building was completed May 1964 and the 50- storey 171m high Tower Building in 1967. Australia Square was a landmark development in the 1960s.

The 13-storey Plaza Building was completed May 1964 and the 50- storey 171m high Tower Building in 1967. Australia Square built between 1962 and 1967 is of national cultural significance for the development of the modern movement in architecture in Australia. The Tower and Plaza Buildings and the Plaza are important as milestones in the architectural and urban development of the ‘modern’ City of Sydney. Australia Square is a major civic place incorporating one of the first modern office towers in Australia designed by one of Australia’s leading architects, Harry Seidler. In 1967 the NSW Chapter of the RAIA awarded the Australia Square Tower the Sir John Sulman Medal, and the Australia Square Plaza the Civic Design Award. It has significant associations with prominent international figures including: the engineer Pier Luigi Nervi, the lighting engineer Edison Price, the architect/artist Le Corbusier and the artists Miro, Alexander Calder, and Victor Vasarely. Australia Square represents important advances in urban design combined with significant technical advances. The six Seidler towers in the City of Sydney (Australia Square, MLC, Grosvenor Place, Capita, Horizon and Cove Apartments) demonstrate the vitality of Modernism, and the evolution of the main current of Modern architecture. Australia Square is associated with the major company, the Lend Lease Corporation Ltd. and was constructed under the auspices of the Dutch developer, G.J. Dusseldorp. Lend Lease together with Civil and Civic, the builders of Australia Square, have continuously occupied the Tower and Plaza Buildings since construction. Australia Square Tower is an elegant innovative building regarded as a landmark building in Sydney. An icon of Australian architecture, it is “a rare confluence of commercial opportunism, modernist planning ideology, technology and aesthetic sensibility” (Neville Quarry, Ch 17 Tall Buildings Australian Business Going Up: 1945- 1970) It is of historic importance for its pioneering approach to the problems of urban redevelopment through the provision of public space on private land, thus minimising problems of pedestrian and 4 atmospheric congestion. The site plan and amenities were influenced by and were associated with the planning incentives introduced in the 1971 Sydney Strategy Plan. It was the first practical demonstration of an amalgamation of old titles into one large tract and the development of a site to leave public space at ground level. It was the first city block development in Sydney. 2.1 Original Brief/Purpose Commercial Office 2.2 Dates: Commission/Completion Submission for the scheme in May 1960.

It will provide a new unique element in the public domain which has been specifically designed to highlight Sydney’s main boulevard and the important civic precinct of Town Hall and the Queen Victoria Building. (B) The proposed artwork is permissible on the subject land and complies with all relevant planning controls with the exception of overshadowing of Sydney Town Hall steps. While the proposal will result in some additional shadowing of the steps this impact will be minor and is outweighed by the positive impacts of the proposal. (C) The proposal is of a nature compatible with the overall function of the locality as a civic precinct in the heart of the Sydney CBD.

    Attachment B Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Prepared for City of Sydney Issue C x January 2018 Project number 13 0581 Modern Movement in Central Sydney x Heritage Study Review EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study was undertaken to provide a contextual framework to improve understanding post World War II and Modern Movement architecture and places in Central Sydney, which is a significant and integral component of its architectural heritage. Findings x The study period (1945-1975) was an exciting and challenging era that determined much of the present physical form of Central Sydney and resulted in outstanding architectural and civic accomplishments. x There were an unprecedented number of development projects undertaken during the study period, which resulted in fundamental changes to the physical fabric and character of Central Sydney. x The buildings are an historical record of the changing role of Australia in an international context and Sydney’s new-found role as a major world financial centre. Surviving buildings provide crucial evidence of the economic and social circumstances of the study period. x Surviving buildings record the adaptation of the Modern Movement to local conditions, distinguishing them from Modern Movement buildings in other parts of the world. x The overwhelming preponderance of office buildings, which distinguishes Central Sydney from all other parts of NSW, is offset by the presence of other building typologies such as churches, community buildings and cultural institutions. These often demonstrate architectural accomplishment. x The triumph of humane and rational urban planning can be seen in the creation of pedestrian- friendly areas and civic spaces of great accomplishment such as Australia Square, Martin Place and Sydney Square.

Interested parties may contact the editors. Harry Margalit and Paola Favaro, UNSW Australia From Social Role to Urban Significance: The Changing Presence of the MLC Company in Martin Place The intersection of Martin Place and Castlereagh Street in Sydney is dominated by a single institution – the MLC (Mutual Life and Citizens’ Assurance Company). To the south is the MLC Centre (1971-77), and on the northern corner stands the interwar MLC building of 1938. The company has a long association with the area, with the Citizens’ Life Assurance Company established in 1886 and headquartered at 21-25 Castlereagh Street. The MLC Company came into being in 1908 with the amalgamation of the Citizens’ Life Assurance Co. Limited and the Mutual Life Assurance Association of Australia. This paper examines the history of the 1938 and 1977 buildings as a means to understanding and elucidating not only the development of the company, but also changing attitudes to how it represented itself through specific buildings, and how the function and public presence of each building chart a shift in urban design attitudes and the use of public space.

  • 3. Promoting the New Paradigm: Seidler and the Zwar House
    3. Promoting the New Paradigm: Seidler and the Zwar House Figure 3.1 Zwar House, 1955, south-east view from Yapunyah Street Photograph: Brendan Lepschi, 2005 Throughout the history of architecture there have been many pamphleteers, publicists and polemicists who have helped to shift public perceptions of existing doctrines, and to promote the advantages of new ways of thinking. Robin Boyd was one such individual within Australian modernist discourse. Another was Harry Seidler, whose campaign in the early 1950s to introduce modernist ideas gained much publicity. ‘High Priest of the Twentieth Century’, ‘Modern Master: How Harry Seidler Changed the Way We Live’, and ‘Harry Seidler Preached the Gospel of Modern Architecture to His Adopted Country’ were just a few of the headlines he received.1 Seidler’s campaign attracted the attention of many Australians who followed architecture, art and design. One of these was John Zwar, a young plant physiologist who arrived in Canberra to take up a position at the CSIRO in 1952. 1 People presented a four-page article on Seidler in January 1951 in which he was ordained the ‘High Priest of the Twentieth Century’, one whose duty was to persuade ‘conservatives that his houses are just right for this modern age’. Seidler was presented as a form of avenging angel who ‘wears bow ties, walks on crepe-soled shoes, and talks with an American accent’. People (17 January 1951): 17–20. The other references are by Philip Drew, [Domain], Sydney Morning Herald (16 March 2006): cover, 8. 77 Experiments in Modern Living One of the first scientists recruited by Frankel to the Division of Plant Industry, Zwar had read many of Seidler’s articles, along with those of the architect’s mentor, Walter Gropius.

  • Mr Harry Seidler AC OBE
    Mr Harry Seidler AC OBE The degree of Doctor of Science in Architecture (honoris causa) was conferred upon Harry Seidler at the Architecture ceremony held on 6 April 2000. Citation Chancellor I have the honour to present to you Harry Seidler for admission to the degree of Doctor of Science in Architecture, honoris causa. Harry Seidler was born in Vienna in 1923 and migrated to Britain when Austria was invaded shortly before the Second World War. In 1939, he was sent with other Germans and Austrians to Canada where he was admitted to study Architecture at the University of Manitoba. He graduated in 1944 and was accepted by the Harvard Graduate School of Design to do post-graduate work with Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer. Later he spent some time with the painter Joseph Albers at Black Mountain College, North Carolina, and subsequently worked with Breuer in New York. He was also, for a brief time, with Oscar Niemeyer in Rio. In 1948, he came to Sydney, and in 1951, won the Sir John Sulman Medal for the first house he built in Australia, the Rose Seidler House at Turramurra. Seidler was exceptionally fortunate in his outstanding teachers, and his youthful international experience. Both influences made him sensitive to cultural differences, and throughout his career as an international architect, his buildings have acknowledged these. In his early years in Sydney, domestic architecture was his main preoccupation. He built houses and high rise apartment blocks in many Sydney suburbs, all of which are recognizable by their strong structural features. In 1960, Seidler began to work with the Italian engineer Pier Luigi Nervi, on the cylindrical tower for Australia Square.
